Being a casual guild, our guild ranks were primarily symbolic until Blizzard gave us the guild bank at which time we tied our ranks to guild bank access. Our ranks have item withdraw limits associated with them to limit the number of items anyone can withdraw per day to minimize the potential for abuse of the bank. The reason for these limits are primarily to limit loss of items from the guild bank should someone's account be hacked. We learned the hard way that bad things happen to good people.

Guild Ranks - (guild bank item withdrawal limit
per tab):
- Guild Leader - (unlimited)
- Co-Guild Leader - (unlimited)
- Officers - (10) - Group for main alts of officers.
- Officers Alts - (10) - We did not want to muddle the officers group with a lot of alts so we made a separate group for officer's alts. This group has the same capabilities of the officer group.
- Guildie of the Month - (3) - This group is only for the current Guildie of the Month (GotM). It's abilities are the same as the Veteran group listed below.
- Veterans - (3) - Members in good standing with a tenure sufficient enough (typically 2-3 months) to have proven themselves to the rest of the guild to be consummate guild members. Veterans have the ability to create new calendar events and mass invite guild members to those events.
- Members - (3) - Permanent members group. New Recruits are promoted here and allowed guild bank access.
- Jr. Members - (0) - Though we don't recruit kids in to the the guild, we do allow kids of respected members to play in the guild under thier parent's supervision.
- Alts - (2) - All the alts of Veterans and Members reside in this group.
- Recruits - (0) - New, potential guild members start in this group for a short period of time (typically 2-4 weeks) sufficient enough for them to prove they will be a positive addition to the guild.
